All right, how's everybody doing? Good. Man, so glad you guys are here. We are in week 15 of our Give Love a Try series.

And it has been an incredible series for me and my own personal walk and for my family. And it's been an incredible series for our church.

And I just want to get started by celebrating some of the things that we've seen God do through the Give Love at Try series.

We've been able to really respond, and you guys have really stepped it up.

And so I just want to take a minute and just celebrate a little bit of what we've seen God do.

Through the Give Love at Try series, we started early in the series.

We dedicated 33 kids by partnering with 28 families as they committed their households to raising their children in a gospel-centered home.

So that's awesome.

We sponsored 524 more compassion kids.

And with that, we wrote 500 additional letters to kids all over the world telling them how much God loves them.

Our current compassion sponsorship total is 9.4 billion kids that we sponsor as a church.

That's not true. It's like 3,500, but we are tracking right toward, we're heading right

toward 9 billion. We baptized 237 people at the beach. Yeah, that was right. That's right. Over 2,000 people

attended to cheer for their new family members, which if you were there, man, it was

stinking awesome. We loved a struggling part of our community that we had not been able to

engage with prior to this.

And through a local mission trip, we were able to see over 100 people serve,

over 4,800 man hours spent in service.

We baptized an additional 30 people in that community who profess Christ while we were able to serve there with them.

So that was really awesome.

One of y'all needs to go plan a church there.

I'll meet you down front after when you respond to God's call.
